What goes wrong without TCS

Every multi-state crew runs into these. A spreadsheet only papers over them; it doesn’t solve them.

  • Missed renewals → permits pulled illegally

    One expired master license and your project pulls permits without a qualifier on file. State-board fines, project delays, and customer-relationship damage that takes years to undo.

  • 4+ HR hours / quarter / employee on CEU tracking

    Manual CEU tracking across multiple states means an HR coordinator burns four hours per quarter per employee chasing certificates, screenshots, and state-portal logins. That doesn't scale past 20 electricians.

  • Spreadsheets stale the day after they're updated

    Even a clean spreadsheet reflects yesterday's state. New CEUs land, employees move between job sites, and the source-of-truth file diverges within hours of the last edit.

  • No audit trail when a state board calls

    When a state board requests a compliance packet, you have 14 days. Without an automated audit trail, that's two weeks of an HR person reconstructing PDFs and certificates from email archives.

  • Reciprocity opportunities missed

    Half your master electricians could qualify in 5+ adjacent states with their existing credentials — but no one has time to file the paperwork. That's lost crew capacity and lost project revenue.

How TCS solves it

Four capabilities, one dashboard.

TCS sells electrical-code education and safety training first — NFPA 70E, NEC CEU packages, journeyman + master prep. The enterprise dashboard is what keeps your workforce’s licenses, training records, and reciprocity activations current across every state you operate in.

1

Employee dashboard

Every license, every employee, every state, in one place. Search by name, state, license type, or expiration window. Drill into any record for the full audit history.

2

Upcoming renewals

Automated reminders 90 / 60 / 30 / 14 days before expiration. Bulk-assign CEU courses for employees who need credit. Renewal packets pre-filled from each state board's published forms.

3

Reciprocity engine

TCS finds every state that accepts your existing employees' credentials — full reciprocity, exam equivalence, NASCLA route, or endorsement. We file the activation paperwork on your behalf.

4

Audit-trail reporting

Per-state compliance packets ready on demand. Five-year minimum retention on every certificate, completion record, and filing receipt — meets OSHA Outreach + state-board audit defaults.

Where it shows up in your day

  • A 47-employee, 9-state contractor renews 412 licenses per year. TCS surfaces the 14 expiring in the next 90 days, queues CEU plans, and pre-fills renewal packets — HR coordinator's quarterly compliance sprint drops from 60 hours to 4.
  • Crew expansion into Oklahoma stalls because no one has time to file the exam-equivalence paperwork for two existing Texas masters. TCS files both activations in 48 hours; project bid lands two weeks earlier.
  • Operations director gets a 30-day expiration alert on a master electrician's TML — not the day after it lapses. CEU bulk-purchase auto-assigns the right course, completion auto-reconciles, renewal packet auto-files.
  • State board requests a 5-year compliance audit on Friday afternoon. Audit packet generates in 90 seconds with every certificate, completion record, and filing receipt — sourced-stamped per state.
  • Bidding on a multi-state federal project. Reciprocity engine confirms which masters qualify in each state on day one, surfaces the activation paths and lead-times, and the bid includes a credible compliance plan.
  • Onboarding a new electrician journeyman. Their existing licenses pull from public state-board records; the dashboard tells you which states accept that credential as-is and which need a state-specific exam.

Frequently asked questions

How is this different from BambooHR or Rippling for electricians?+

BambooHR and Rippling are HRIS platforms — they track headcount, payroll, and PTO. They don't know that Texas TML expires on the holder's birthday, that Ohio is biennial, that Colorado contractor licenses inherit their RI master's expiration, or that Oklahoma accepts a Texas master via exam-equivalence. TCS is built around those state-board specifics from day one, by a master electrician licensed in 20+ states. We integrate with your HRIS instead of replacing it.

What if my employees work in states TCS hasn't covered yet?+

TCS already supports the 50-state license matrix and reciprocity engine. The CEU course catalog rolls out state by state on a published schedule — TX TDLR is live; FL, WA, UT, OH, OK, VA, GA, KY, AL, AR, MS, NM ship in the next 8 weeks; the rest follow on a public roadmap. License tracking + renewal reminders + audit trail work in all 50 states on day one. CEU bulk-purchase coverage matches whichever states are live for that specific course.

Can I bulk-purchase CEU courses for multiple employees?+

Yes. From the Bulk CEU page in your dashboard, assign any TCS course to a list of employees in one step, and we book the credit to each employee's record automatically when they complete it. Volume pricing kicks in past 25 seats, with founding-customer pricing locked in for life.

What's your data retention policy?+

Five-year minimum retention on every certificate, completion record, training packet, and state-board filing receipt. Stored across Attio (customer record), Vercel Blob (PDF archive), and Stripe (billing). This default meets OSHA Outreach 10/30 requirements and every state-board audit standard we've tested. Custom retention windows available on Enterprise.

Do you integrate with our HRIS?+

Yes — we sync with BambooHR, Rippling, Gusto, ADP, and Workday on the Mid-market and Enterprise tiers. New employees auto-create a TCS record; departures auto-disable. SCIM provisioning available on Enterprise. If your HRIS isn't on the list, send us a note via the form below and we'll prioritise it.

What happens at end of subscription?+

Your data exports cleanly — every license record, every completion certificate, every audit packet, in CSV + PDF, owned by you. We retain the minimum required for compliance reasons (5-year audit-trail), but no new updates or reminders fire after cancellation. You can resume anytime with full history intact.
